Tyler Andrew Spencer is a haunted man. His mother's murder has left an everlasting scar on his soul that nothing can heal, and a twisted lump of hate, anger, and vengeance has rooted itself within him. Deeply troubled, he is institutionalized.
After a year, he finally convinces the psychiatrists that his mind has returned to a normal, healthy state-but he's lying. He knows his mother's killer is still out there, and he knows he will stop at nothing to track the man down.
Appearing to all as a handsome, successful businessman, Tyler seeks justice for one woman-his mother-while his own warped obsessions lead him to kill others-each a beautiful prostitute-in sordid, brutal, and demented sexual encounters that feed his insanity.
With Tyler's dark misdeeds now front and center with the police department, hardened detective David Harrison is assigned to the case. As he tries to get inside the mind of a perverted serial killer, his investigation takes him places he'd never have imagined-and when Tyler's quest for revenge meets David's quest for justice, will either man get out alive?
